MicaSense Altum-PT

Altum-PT is an optimized 3-in-1 solution for advanced remote sensing and agricultural research. It seamlessly integrates an ultra-high-resolution panchromatic imager, a new thermal imager that provides twice the ground resolution of the previous Altum, and five discrete spectral bands, allowing plant-level applications such as early-stage stand counting. Altum-PT also features a global shutter for distortion-free results, open APIs, and a new storage device allowing for up to 2 captures/second.

The Altum-PT sensor kit comes with: Altum-PT sensor, DLS 2 with embedded GPS, Calibrated Reflectance Panel (CRP 2), USB WiFi dongle, lens cover, necessary integration cables, assorted mounting hardware, CFexpress card, CFexpress card reader, Hard Carrying Case, Quick Start Guide.

Key Features

Increased storage

New professional removable storage standard in CFexpress, enabling over two captures per second, immediate turnaround time between flights by swapping cards, and super-fast card-to-computer upload speeds for more efficient data management.

Twice the spatial resolution of the previous altum

Altum-PT features an ultra-high resolution panchromatic sensor which allows for “pan-sharpening” the multispectral imagery, ultimately increasing the spatial resolution of the multispectral data: 1.2 cm (0.47in) pan-sharpened ground resolution when flying at 60m (200ft).

Ugradeted thermal sensor

Altum-PT features a built-in 320 x 256 FLIR Boson® that enables thermal maps at twice the ground resolution of Altum – 17cm from 60m flight altitude.
